The game entered the last 10 seconds, as the veteran basketball team in Shanghai, the Nanyang Model Middle School team got the ball and was ready for the final fight. Standing on the outside line, aiming at the basket, the defender missed a three-point shot, and the Jiaotong University Auxiliary Squadron, who was only 3 points ahead of the score, regained the ball!
With the final whistle sounding, the score of this "Youth Rush" basketball game was fixed at 75-72, and the Jiaotong University Affiliated Squadron won the 2021 Shanghai Youth Basketball Championship Men's High School Category Championship.
This National Day holiday, Shanghai set off a youth storm belonging to basketball. From October 2nd to 6th, the 2021 Shanghai Youth Basketball Championship was held at the basketball hall of the Affiliated Middle School of Shanghai Jiao Tong University, the basketball hall of the Luwan Junior Sports School in Huangpu District, and the basketball hall of the Jing'an District Sports Bureau, with 41 men's teams and 26 women's teams from 16 districts in Shanghai, a total of 855 athletes gathered on the field to compete for the ownership of 6 championship trophies.
The final of the boys' high school group held in the basketball hall of Jiaotong University Affiliated High School is the focus of this tournament. Nanyang Model Middle School, as a traditional strong team of Shanghai youth basketball, has almost monopolized the champions of shanghai youth basketball competitions in recent years, showing its strong strength at the hegemonic level. The Shanghai Jiao Tong University Affiliated High School Team is a high-profile rookie team this year, and won two important events in 2021.
The strength of the "old king" is still strong, and the "new emperor" is unstoppable, from the past "one big family" to the current "double dragon play pearl", showing that the level of Shanghai youth basketball competition shows a "multi-point blossoming" flourishing posture. Yu Bin, director of the Referee Committee of the Shanghai Basketball Association, said frankly, "Nanmo Middle School once 'ruled' in the basketball industry of Shanghai Middle School for 20 years, and now it has such a comparable opponent as Jiaotong University Affiliated High School, which is more conducive to a healthy competition." That's not enough, we hope more schools reach the same level. ”
Three times a year, Yang Guang, the head coach of the Jiaotong University Affiliated Squadron, could not hide his excitement after the game: "It is impossible not to be excited, there are too many people we have to thank, not only the players and coaches are working hard and fighting, the school leaders have also given us very great support, including the meticulous care of parents, and finally achieved the championship." Yang Guang revealed that this National Day, from players, coaches to parents, almost no one rests, is to meet the moment of final bloom.
Youth stirs, blood races. Competing for the championship is not the only purpose, but it is the original intention to temper the will of the heart with basketball. The players of the Jiaotong University Affiliated Squadron attributed the victory to "hard work and perseverance". Wang Chuchen, who served as the No. 3 position in the competition, said frankly that the Nanmo Middle School team is strong and is a respectable opponent, "But we have never been afraid of a strong opponent, tenacious and tenacious, not accepting defeat, is the characteristic of our Jiaotong University Affiliated Squadron, and this spirit helps us achieve good results." ”
Professionalism and high level are the keywords of this year's Shanghai Youth Basketball Championship. The tournament and the Shanghai Youth Basketball Championship are separated in the first and second half of the year, both of which represent the highest level of youth basketball competitions in Shanghai. The tournament not only adopts the latest approved "Basketball Rules" and relevant regulations of the Chinese Basketball Association in terms of competition rules, but also requires that all participants must be young athletes registered in Shanghai this year.
Tan Ying, head of basketball at the Shanghai Youth Training and Management Center, has been watching the game on the spot. She told the author that the event invited outstanding sports teams and coaches to the field to select outstanding seedlings as a reserve talent for competitive sports in Shanghai. "As the highest level basketball tournament for young people in Shanghai, some players with good physical conditions and technical level will receive the attention of professional coaches."
It is reported that two players in the champion team of this tournament will be able to obtain the qualification of applying for a national first-class athlete, and in the future, they can step into the door of colleges and universities as outstanding student athletes and continue to chase their basketball dreams through special recruitment of university high-level sports teams or single-stroke examinations of sports majors in some colleges and universities.
The event was hosted by Shanghai East Asia Sports And Culture Center Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of Jiushi Sports, to promote the protection of the event in an all-round way.
